Right. So right now, they're practicing climbing up trees. The dialogue will be different!
Mikotsu POV
Dammit, this tree-climbing is harder than I thought! I jumped from trunk to trunk and finally landed on the ground. I compared my tree to Naruto's and Sasuke's. Sasuke was nearly at the top, Naruto was almost halfway. I was catching up to Sasuke, but he was still higher than me.
I walked over to Sasuke. Naruto had asked Sakura for advice, but I couldn't hear anything. I could ask Naruto, but he probably forgot what Sakura told him. Since Sasuke was the number one student at the academy, I guess asking him would be a more appropriate choice than Naruto. And Sakura left already...so...
"Sasuke...help me with this," I stated, not exactly asking. "I asking for help, so be nice and help me."
Sasuke gave me a startled look, surprised that I would ask him instead of Naruto. He knows I hate him. "Just help me. Please."
Sasuke POV
"Please."
I mentally flinched. "Uh..." What do I say to that? If it was Sakura or some fangirl, I could easily brush her off. But she was actually asking me sincerely! She's asking me as a normal person, not just because she wants to talk to me because I'm cute.
"Right. So you just concentrate, and try to control the chakra in the soles of your feet. Then maintain it. Try not to think about anything else. And a running start, but I think you know that already."
Mikotsu nodded. "Thanks, Sasuke." She gave me a small smile.
I nodded. She didn't call me Sasuke-kun, like the other girls. That's refreshing to hear. "Uh...yeah."
Mikotsu POV
Hm. I guess Sasuke could be pretty nice when he's not trying to be stuck up all the time. Maybe I should be a bit nicer to him as well...Oh well. I'm going to tackle this tree-climbing thing first.
I took a few steps back from my tree and focused my chakra. Concentrate and control. Concentrate and control. Concentrate an-
"Hey, Naruto!" Damn you, Sasuke! I was trying to concentrate! I could tell Naruto was thinking the same thing.
"What do you want, Sasuke!" Naruto yelled, irratated.
"Yeah!" I echoed Naruto. "Good job ruining my concentration!" I stuck out my tongue at him.
Sasuke ignored me and walked to Naruto. "What did Sakura say to you?"
Uh...what? And I thought he was almost normal a second ago! Instead of pursuing the matter, I focused my chakra again.
Okay, this time for sure! I dashed towards my chosen tree. Once again, when I got halfway, my concentration faltered. No! I gritted my teeth and focused on my feet connecting with the trunk. I closed my eyes and continued dashing. When I reopened them, I was at the top.
"Yeah!" I laughed, sitting on a side branch. "Eat that, Sasuke!"
"Good job, Mikotsu-chan!" Naruto smirked at me. "I'll catch up to you soon!" Sasuke said nothing as he went back to his tree. I guess he didn't like the idea of both Sakura and me overtaking him. Guess the Uchiha needed some practice. Heheh.
Sorry about the short chapter, I can't write when my brother's next to me...he'll just read it and start asking me questions about this...T.T
Please review!
